We pride ourselves in our knowledge and enthusiasm for new artists and bands. We have seen all the 'scenes' and probably started one or two, and now find ourselves as one of the country's most independent record stores. Voted into the Independent Newspaper's Top Ten stores, with luminaries such as Norman Cook (Fatboy Slim) and Damian Harris as ex-employees we are all wondering what next!
